Roll Safe Think About It

First 2 binary numbers are “1” and the last one is “3”

No, I got it wrong it’s 1, 2, 3

binary is as simple as Morse so if you master Morse code you can master Binary

Wow... We're up to 101 upvotes so far...

Well thank you!

Exactly! And binary is wonderful. But I really love the joys of hex (as in hexadecimal).

Each has its uses! :-)

If only DEAD people understand Hexadecimal, that would mean that 57005 people understand Hexadecimal.

The key is the word DEAD itself. It is a hexadecimal number that’s why it was in the word form. D was equal to 13, A was 10, E was 14 and the other D was also 13. Then each of the equivalent number is multiplied to the corresponding number in base 16 for each that will multiplied:

1 X 13 = 13
16 X 10 = 160
256 X 14 = 3584
4096 X 13 = 53248

Add it all up and get 57005

The old time programmers (and I'm an ancient one) know how to convert number bases that do a very nice job of representing Binary in shorthand format.
